I am 23(f) and work f/t my company have been offering compresses hours which I have happily accepted bearing in mind I get paid the same and do the same hours but an extra day off plus weekends.
I excitedly told my parents this and they are furious saying that I should have discussed it with them first as it affects them too.
They've also said if I'm going to be home an extra day of in the week I need to do something with it and not just hang around the house.
My dad is retired and spends every day hanging around the house doing nothing.
Aibu to think a) this has nothing to do with them and b) I shouldn't be told to go out and do something when I am looking forward to an extra down day at home doing exactly what my dad does?
I am of course looking to move out asap but would you think there was any coming back from this or should I just move on never look back.

Sounds like it's time to move out.

I don't see how you can go NC while still living with them 🤷‍♀️

Maybe they have their swingers club when you are at work.

Complete over reaction from you

But of course feel free to
move out and live independently

Sounds like they are giving you the hint that you should be moved out.

Don't go nc just move out. I would have hated to have lived with my parents at the age of 23.

How would going NC work when you live in their house?

Bit extreme from both them and you really, unless there's a backstory.

Definitely move out and what you do in your spare time is up to you. But to banish them from your entire life for the rest of theirs is melodramatic. You’d regret it. Just make your own life.

You.

A bit of an extreme reaction, don't you think?

From him or me?
